“The stuff I am doing now is beyond my wildest dreams — though I have met President Clinton, President Obama and President Bush before. They’re regular guys. George Bush loves his family, Christian man; President Obama loves his family, another Christian man; Bill Clinton, another Christian man. These guys are all human. Behind closed doors, they’re human guys. They are not mechanical machines even if their ratings are down.”
Out of the three, Foxx was asked to name his favorite presidents:
“Obviously, with President Obama, there is a kinship because I am an African-American. Watching how he deals [with everything], he’s like LeBron James. Either he’s at the top of the mountain or they put him at the bottom of the ocean. If you look back on this time, you’ll look back on how chaotic it was and say, ‘Here’s a man who is not afraid.’”
Jamie also recalled his White House Visit back in 2011 when he hosted a Motown event
I performed for President Obama. He hosted a Motown event in his place, and it was fantastic. Oh man, we need to put together a fund to take people to Washington, D.C., so they can see the monuments! It was enchanting. I think the White House was smaller but not less grand — it was more grand — than I imagined.”
